( a simple user name will do, don't need the entire profile)

Report cases of don't know if it commerce but would like to discuss it here:

It is alright if you get the wrong thing in the wrong place, we'll find 'em.

Newbies: please do not click on any porn or drug or finance links, they're full of malicious badness. Please do not post to spam threads, I'd prefer a clean sweep without comments to be deleted also. The witty comments don't add much to the board, we have plenty of playground for that without gumming up the spam.

A moderator can delete/edit posts and topics. It takes an admin to ban an IP and unsub a user. We can be reached via PM for other concerns such violations of the TOS.

Thank you.

Scam letter posted by AZ reminds me of a fascinating article I read in the May 15, 2006 New Yorker about a Christian psychologist sophisticated (?) enough to earn $140k per year falling for this very same scam. Before it was all said and done, he lost $80,000, and earned two years in prison for depositing fraudulent checks sent to him by the Nigerian scammers.

I wish there was some way for computer geeks to trace the origin of spam mail back to the source. How I would love to blow up a spammer's computer!

You guys are suckers - The finance minister in Nigeria already did this deal with me!!!!! He needed my help to get the 34 million US dollars out of the country, and I get 2 million of it for helping them!!! I gave them all my info and am just waiting for my part of the transfer to come.

Cant Wait - he said it would happen soon.

later all.

Lemme know how that works out for you mdmf...

Once you're rich, if you want a great investment, I have some land in Florida, and a couple of bridges to sell. For the right price, maybe I'll sell you my island in New York.
